On the fauna of Tachyporinae (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) of the Russian Far East. I. The genusTachinus Gravenhorst, 1802

An annotated list of Tachinus species (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) with new records is given. T. rubricollis Rambousek, 1921 is revalidated; T. rishirianus Watanabe et Shibata, 1965 is elevated to species propria. T. latissimus Tichomirova, 1973 and T. nigriceps mandschuricus Ullrich, 1975 are placed in the synonymy of T. rubricollis. The synonymy of T. kobensis Cameron, 1933 with T. nigriceps Sharp, 1888 is reestablished. The synonymy of T. exiguus Veselova, 1993 with T. kabakovi Veselova, 1990 is considered to be doubtful. T. atripes J.Sahlberg, 1876 and T. setosus Ullrich, 1975 are first recorded for the Far East. T. rishirianus is first recorded for the Asian mainland. T. bipustulatus (Fabricius, 1793), T. elegans Eppelsheim, 1893 and T. rubricollis are first cited for the N Amur basin. T. nigriceps Sharp, 1888 and T. atripes J.Sahlberg, 1876 are cited for Russia for the first time.
